According to YSRCP spokesperson, the chief minister’s maneuver aims to protect his son and education minister Nara Lokesh from scrutiny over alleged malpractices in teacher appointments. The party alleges that the Special Investigation Team found no breaches in candidate eligibility, exam conduct, answer script handling, merit calculation, or the final merit list. It further points out that answer sheets remained under the custody of the High Court, and selections were made following the court’s guidelines.
